There’s been many videos posted which show hackers shooting people hundreds of meters away with shotguns through all types of obstacles and terrain. It’s pretty loving shameful that this game is so bad.

the blatant hackers aren't even the bad ones, it's when people post about anti-recoil or ESP hacks that are depressing to me, because unlike the really obvious ones who knows how many people are fuckin suspect doing that poo poo especially in a game with 100 other people per match

Hippie Hedgehog posted:Through stuff? That shouldn't be possible. Can you post video of the death cam or replay? I'd like to see it. Well yeah under normal circumstances it isn't. There are hacks that allow it; happened to me three times so far. That's why it's such blatant cheating when it happens. The person doing it will have an absurd number of kills every game, have a ridiculous win rate, and be seen doing it repeatedly if you watch the replays. They'll just kind of stop for a moment and then somebody will suddenly die.

Got to #2 in duos... Despite me crashing and coming back 1.5 minutes later. (I think it was my internet crashing.) I really think if i hadn't had that crash, we may have had a better chance. I crashed while trying to get on top of our UAZ to get on top of a roof to get to a crate. Game good. Crashing bad.

The easiest way to do it is set a ping limit and just say it’s because you’re trying to grow your e-sport or whatever. That kind of absolves them of any possible xenophobia or whatever.

underage at the vape shop posted:nah he reckons that its super awesome that people from different countries can play together and any argument to why it isnt is xenophobic In theory it's super awesome. But the realities of language barriers and long distances loving with latencies makes it kind of poo poo a lot of the time. The hacking is one thing. It'll be a problem no matter which country you're playing with. It's a huge shooter game there's going to be hackers even if they ever do really crack down on them and make it less widespread. The latency stuff can be much more of a pain, imo. Those people with super high ping are kind of getting an advantage without even needing to cheat. If there's a way to fix that without locking off regions, then cool. But also if you want all regions to play together give me some loving quick chat options, so you can at least kind of communicate better if you're queuing up for squads with pubbies. Every chinese player I've played with has been super helpful but I have no idea wtf they're saying.

I didn't say I didn't think it's possible - I said it shouldn't be. I mean, clearly it is, I just hadn't seen the "through walls" hack videos before. As a programmer, it seems like the engine is really to blame. Walls should be solid to the server, and if the client says "here, my guy shot a bullet in this direction", the server should be doing the calculation of where the bullet ends up. The only way this "hack" could work is if the server trusts the client to calculate bullet trajectories, which it shouldn't do and I've not heard of a game that does that in many many years. I can see how preventing hacks that help people to aim straight for someone's head at 900m involves some complicated programming. That's hack prevention, checking the integrity of the game binaries, preventing outside software from loving with the inputs, making it harder to read of the game's state from memory (to prevent wallhax), noticing impossible movement (like pixel perfect 180 degree spins in one tick) etc. Making sure the server is authoritative with regard to hit calculations should be pretty trivial, by comparison.

Your train of thought seems kind of backwards in terms of who’s letting someone do something. Also most games do not calculate bullet trajectories at all so things like a line of sight check which can be trivial doesn’t make sense when you have hit scan.

This would only stop blatant hackers (which are already easy to detect through traditional means) and do nothing against people who use more subtle cheats like wallhacks or ESP, or only toggle in the top 10. Those are the real problem that makes you question the integrity of the game. Blatant hackers are annoying but they just highlight the fact that there's probably other, non obvious hackers around.

Hitscan is a simple line of sight check with no projectile simulation (no travel time, no falloff, nothing like that). Guns in PUBG aren't hitscan. You're mixing up your definitions somewhere.

Had the best kind of hacker kill me last night. We all got downed by a silent S12K. Death cam is a dude driving around with no pants on. Spawns himself guns. Gets out and shoots the air six times and six people die. I'll get a clip after work. The blatant/shameless cheaters will always amuse me. People who tryhard while using aimbots and wallhacks are human garbage tho.

I do believe I've started seeing what is easily the most annoying thing in the game so far. Multiple games I've had somebody on my team drop somewhere deep in the mountains where nobody would ever, ever go unless the last circle is there then spam really annoying sounds at their team the whole game. Not only do you end up down a body because your teammate is literally not even playing but now you can't hear anything important or talk to your teammates. I really want to like this game but holy gently caress is the community making it completely impossible.
